SOS Children’s Villages
In 1949, in Imst, Austria, Hermann Gmeiner, a devoted advocate for child protection, founded the first SOS Children’s Village. Witnessing the suffering of orphaned children after World War II, he turned a visionary idea into reality: every child deserves a loving mother, siblings, and a stable family environment within a supportive community.
This vision became the mission of SOS Children’s Villages, to provide a warm and caring home for children deprived of parental care or at risk of losing it. Today, SOS Children’s Villages International federal coordinates all the actions of its associations in 136 countries and territories, offering tailored support to hundreds of thousands of children every year through family strengthening, care, education, health, and community development programs.

What is an SOS Integrated Home ?
An SOS Integrated Home is a family-based care model developed by SOS Children’s Villages to meet the specific needs of children without parental support, at the same time, promoting their inclusion in society.
Unlike a family home located within an SOS Village, the integrated family lives in a house within an ordinary neighborhood, allowing the children to grow up in a warm family environment in the local community.
This model aims to provide stability, emotional security, and educational guidance, while maintaining strong ties with the children’s social and school life.
